Title: "Understanding the Extent of Drug Use in Schools: A Research Proposal"
2. Introduction
A. Background and context:
Drug use in schools is a pressing issue that requires immediate attention. Reports of an increase in drug-related incidents
within the local school district have raised concerns among educators, parents, and community members. These incidents
include instances of students being found in possession of drugs or displaying behaviors that suggest substance abuse. Such
incidents not only put the individuals involved at risk but also create an unsafe and disruptive learning environment for all
students.
Understanding the extent of the problem, its underlying causes, and potential solutions is crucial in addressing this issue
effectively. The school district has reached out to our university for assistance in conducting research to shed light on the
magnitude of the problem and develop evidence-based strategies for prevention and intervention.
This research proposal aims to investigate the prevalence and patterns of drug use in schools, examine the factors
contributing to drug use among students, and propose interventions and strategies to address this issue. By conducting this
research, we hope to gain a comprehensive understanding of the problem and provide actionable recommendations to the
school district.
B. Problem statement:
